THE GOOD & REESE COMPANY WHOLESALE TRADE LIST 
Polyantha or Baby Rambler Roses —Concluded 
ORLEANS (Levavasseur, 1910)—The showiest and pretti¬ 
est of all the Baby Ramblers. This charming and dainty 
Rose Is of beautiful rounded habit and is a huge bouquet 
of deep ceritfe or Geranium-pink with distinct showy 
center of pure white; florets not crowded but of beauti¬ 
ful arrangement, making as a whole a charming com¬ 
bination that cannot be beaten. The color is irresistible. 
r I he plant grows like a weed and the flowers are nearly 
“immortelle” in their lasting qualities. We believe that 
they will outlast almost any other Rose in existence 
with their stiff paper-like texture. This pretty Rose 
lias taken Europe by storm and will make a sensation 
as soon as known in this country. Awarded gold medal. 
PERLE d’Olt (Dubreuil, 1 883)—Nankeen-yellow with or¬ 
ange center; very novel and beautiful. This Rose is 
dividing honors with “Mile. Cecile Brunner” as a cut 
flower, being planted very largely for this purpose. A 
charming miniature Rose. 
PAQUERETTE (Guillot, 1S76) — This is one among the 
very first Baby Rambler Roses sent out. The flowers 
are very double and pure white. This Rose has many 
favorites. 
PRIMULA (Soupert, 1900) — Considered by many to be the 
most popular of the Baby Rambler Roses. Grows to a 
height of two feet. Very hardy. Always in bloom. The 
color is the shade of the Lawson Carnation—beautiful 
carmine-pink. For ourselves, we are very fond of this 
Rose. 
PRINCESS MARIE ADELAIDE (Soupert, 1896)—A grand 
Baby Rambler Rose. Flowers of good size. The color is 
a bright pink, flushed with yellow; extra. 
SCHNEEWITCHEN, SNOW WHITE (Lambert, 1901)—An 
ideal sort for garden culture, having a round, compact 
habit, with very full trusses of evenly disposed flowers, 
which are perfect in form and semi-double. Color glis¬ 
tening ivory-white, with golden stamens, extra. 
Hybrid Perpetual Roses —Newer Varieties 
The first Hybrid Perpetuals were grown from crosses between Hybrid China and Tea-Scented Roses with Gallica 
and Bourbon Roses. This is a beautiful class and cannot be too highly recommended, including, as it does, many of 
the hardiest early and late flowering kinds and nearly all of the superb rich crimson red and pink varieties which 
make such pleasing contrasts to the yellow and white Teas. These are hardy. 
DUCHESS OF SUTHERLAND (Alex. Dickson, 1912)—A 
strikingly distinct and beautiful Rose of decided merit, 
possessing great value for garden decollation. The 
blooms are freely produced, are large and full, conical 
in shape, building up into a large flower which possesses 
a delicious Sweetbriar perfume. Color, delicate rose- 
pink with lemon shading on the white base; charming. 
GEORGE AHRENDS —See Pink Frau Karl Druschki. 
GEORGE DICKSON (Alex. Dickson, 1912)—The introduc¬ 
ers of this new Rose say: “This is the best Rose ever 
raised by us. We make this statement advisedly and 
with a full sense of our responsibility. The Rose is 
named after the senior member of our firm, who is now 
approaching his eightieth birthday. We are quite satis¬ 
fied that within two years George Dickson will be the 
most popular exhibition Rose in existence. As near as 
we can describe it, the color is a velvety-black crimson, 
the back of the petal being heavily veined with deep 
pure crimson-maroon. The petals are of splendid shape; 
of magnificent substance; delightfully smooth, and built 
to make the form of flower perfection. We have regu¬ 
larly had blooms of the highest exhibition standard quite 
five inches across. It has wonderful lasting qualities, 
not only as to the retention of its color, but also in its 
shape and freshness. Awarded the gold medal of the 
National Rose Society of England, besides many other 
first awards at various other shows in England and 
Ireland.” 
HEINRICH MUNCH (Ilinner, 1912)—Soft pink, very large 
and full; vigorous, fine for forcing in pots and for garden 
culture. Took the sweepstakes prize at the Boskoop 
Rose Exhibition in June, 1913. This is claimed by many 
to be the pink Frau Karl Druschki. 
KING GEORGE V. (Hugh Dickson, 1912)—What Mr. Dick¬ 
son himself cays of this Rose: “The flower is very large 
and very full, opening freely; beautifully shaped; much 
resembling ‘Madame Jules Gravereaux’ in build of flow¬ 
er and petal. The petals are very abundant and nicely 
arranged. The color is quite unique amongst Hybrid 
Teas, being rich blackish-crimson, with deep velvety 
violet flush, a striking and brilliant color, not burning in 
the sun nor turning blue, as so many of our very dark 
Roses do. It is very free flowering and perpetual, and 
delights in a warm sun. The perfume is strong and very 
pleasing. This is one of the finest novelties which we 
have ever sent out, and has elicited universal admiration 
wherever shown. Awarded the gold medal of the Festi¬ 
val of Empire, Crystal Palace, London, June 29th, 1911.” 
With us this Rose is a pure Hybrid Perpetual. 
FINK FRAU KARL DRUSCHKI, or GEORGE AHRENDS 
(Hinner, 1910)—This is the wonderful “Pink Druschki.” 
Do not confound it with the much inferior sort “Heinrich 
Munch,” which is being offered in some quarters as "Pink 
Druschki.” This Rose we predict will have as large a 
following and be as largely planted in a very few years 
as the now famous “White Druschki.” We have looked 
it over in the field and grown it in pots for the market, 
and we absolutely cannot detect a single fault in it or 
about it. The growth and make-up of the plants is 
superb, while the delicate pink color is unapproachable. 
Thank you, Mr. Hinner. You have enriched our Rose 
collection for all time. You know what some of you 
have missed by delaying so long in getting acquainted 
with “Frau Karl Druschki.” Do not repeat this mist- 
take with “George Ahrends.”

ALFRED COLOMBK (Lacharme, 1865)—Bright red, very 
large, full and globular; free blooming and fragrant; a 
grand Rose. 
AMERICAN BEAUTY (Ledecheaux, 'ISIS) — The well 
known red forcing Rose.

land. This is catalogued abroad as a Hybrid Tea; in

BARON DE BONSTETTIN (Liabaud, 1871)—Velvety 
blackish-crimson; large and full. 
BARONESS ROTHSCHILD (Pernet, 1867)— An old Rose 
but hard to get hold of. The large blooms are grown on 
stiff, erect canes. Color bright clear pink. The foliage 
grows right up to the flower, and thus makes a bouquet 
of each'individual bloom. 
BLACK PRINCE (W. Paul, 1S62)—Deep blackish crimson; 
large, full and globular; very free flowering. 
BOULE DE NEIGE, or BALL OF SNOW (Lacharme, 
1867)—Pure white, flushed rose; very fioriferous. 
CAPTAIN CHRISTY (Lacharme, 1873) — Delicate peach- 
blow pink, center richer in color; large and full. Abroad 
this Rose is classed with the Hybrid Teas. 
CAPTAIN HAYWARD (Bennett, 1893)—This Rose ranks 
right up with Frau Karl Druschki, indeed, many call it 
the red Druschki. Of the largest size. Color deep glow¬ 
ing crimson, very bright and rich. We know of no red 
Hybrid that in any way compares with it. 
CHARLES LEFEBVRE (Lacharme, 1861)—Fine brilliant 
velvety crimson; very large and double and of superb 
form; must take rank as one of the best of the Hybrid 
Perpetuals. 
CLIO (W. Paul, 1894)—Flesh color, shaded in the center 
to rosy-peach. Large, fine, globular form; free bloomer 
and distinct. 
CONRAD FERDINAND MEYER (Froebel, 1900)—This 
Rose has Rugosa blood in its make-up and is classed by 
some as a Hybrid Rugosa; it is the best Hybrid Perpetual 
you have ever known. This is a grand Rose, a vigorous 
grower, and free bloomer; flowers large, perfectly double, 
cup-shaped. Color deep, bright, vivid, intense pink, 
with the penetrating fragrance of the old June Roses. 
We have grown this Rose for four years, in sections of 
the country from Canada to the Gulf, and we have no 
hesitancy in saying after the most thorough and rigid 
test that a Rose can be put to that this Rose is in every 
respect just what we claim for it. That is, the very best 
all around Rose ever introduced by anyone, and to this 
we make not a single exception. It grows vigorously, 
it blooms freely, is absolutely hardy, flowers of the larg¬ 
est size; the form is perfect, the coloring unequaled and 
the fragrance delicious. Can you ask more?
